The Clemson City Council is feeling confident about the Tigers' chances of making the National Championship game on Jan. 7, 2019.

During Monday's meeting, the council voted unanimously to suspend the city's open container law downtown and to close part of College Avenue to host a viewing party if the team is in the championship game.

The city hosted a similar event in 2017 and described it as "well attended, with minimal problems." The city council approved a similar event for the 2018 game, before the team lost to Alabama in the Sugar Bowl.
